Champions League Winners Odds

Manchester City are the favourites to win the Champions League having managed to become just the second team in English football history to do the treble last season.

Pep Guardiola will be aiming to become the second manager in Champions League history to retain the trophy after Zinedine Zidane, while also aiming to win his fourth crown as coach having previously won the trophy in 2009 and 2011 with Barcelona prior to last campaign’s success.

Having signed the likes of Josko Gvardiol and Mateo Kovacic while being on the verge of completing a deal for Matheus Nunes of Wolverhampton Wanderers, City could be a good bet to win the competition for the second time in their history.

Bayern Munich will be aiming to win the Champions League for the seventh time in the club’s history this season, having most recently won it back in 2019/20.

Current coach Thomas Tuchel memorably led Chelsea to their second Champions League title in 2020/21 at the expense of Manchester City and has seen a major flaw in his squad covered, with Harry Kane joining the club to fill the void that was left by Robert Lewandowski back in the summer of 2022.

On top of this, Bayern will be happy to see the return of Manuel Neuer return for a leg break that was suffered in the winter break after the 2022 Qatar World Cup while further strengthening their defence as a whole with the additions of Kim Min-Jae and Raphael Guerreiro.

14-times winners Real Madrid will be keen to add another Champions League title to their record tally having been thrashed 5-1 on aggregate by eventual winners Manchester City in last season’s semi-final.

Interestingly, there has been a change in tactic by Carlo Ancelotti in the early stages of the 2023/24 season, as following the signing of Jude Bellingham and the departure of talismanic striker Karim Benzema, the Italian has deployed Bellingham in behind Brazilian duo Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo, something that has worked well as Los Blancos have had a perfect start to their La Liga campaign.

Could it be written in the stars for Bellingham to lead Real to a 15th Champions League crown?

Arsenal will be aiming to win the Champions League for the first time in their history having been beaten finalists to Barcelona all the way back in 2006.

The Gunners have made significant progress in the last few seasons under the management of Mikel Arteta, having notably finished second in the Premier League last season, challenging Manchester City who ended up being just five points better off after 38 games.

After making the additions of David Raya, Jurrien Timber (injured), Declan Rice and Kai Havertz, can the Gunners go all the way in this season’s Champions League?

Barcelona will be looking to make significant improvement on last season’s group stage exit, with Xavi aiming to guide the club to their five Champions League title and his fourth in general.

The Blaugarana managed to win La Liga in style last season as they finished 10 points clear of Real Madrid, something that may give them the confidence to improve in Europe having added the likes of Inigo Martinez, Oriol Romeu and Ilkay Gundogan to their ranks, while also being on the verge of acquiring Joao Cancelo.

PSG have gone through somewhat of a revamp this season having appointed Luis Enrique, while seeing the likes of Lionel Messi, Sergio Ramos and Neymar depart the club in a bid to build a more cohesive unit.

The Parc des Princes club have acquired some interesting players in the shapes of Goncalo Ramos, Milan Skriniar, Marco Asensio, Kang-in Lee, Lucas Hernandez, Ousmane Dembele, Manuel Ugarte and more.

Having made it to the final in 2020 when they were beaten by Bayern Munich, can PSG go one better this time around?

Erik ten Hag will be hoping to win his first Champions League trophy with three-time winners of this competition, Manchester United.

The Dutch coach memorably led Ajax to the semi-finals of this competition in 2018/19 and was moments away from reaching the final but for Lucas Moura’s sensational hat-trick for Tottenham.

United’s last Champions League final came all the way back in 2011 and the Old Trafford club showed a lot of promising signs in Europe last season, especially when they managed to beat Barcelona 4-3 on aggregate.

Napoli’s Odds: 20/1

Newcastle United’s Odds: 20/1

Atletico Madrid’s Odds: 28/1

Inter Milan’s Odds: 28/1

Borussia Dortmund’s Odds: 33/1
